Hear Me Out¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish

40/1

Bumper winner but well held in 2 Flat outings in recent weeks. This longer trip should but it's still probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 89

(5)

Little Les

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Connor Beasley| T: D W Whillans

80/1

Pastoral Pursuits gelding. Brother to useful Italian 1m winner Nearly Not Mine and half-brother to winners abroad by Soviet Star and Kheleyf. Can only really watch on belated debut.

Form:

(8)

Great Commission

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: B Haslam

33/1

Nathaniel gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 1m Bandola and 11.6f winner Duke of Condicote. Makes some paper appeal so worth a precautionary market check.

Keep The Faith¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: William Pyle⁽⁷⁾| T: M & D Easterby

14/1

Has shown a fair level of ability on both starts. Unlikely he's reached his limit but he will need to step up in he's to trouble a couple of these.

Form: 43

Line Of Descent²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 84

4/5

Fairly useful form. 7/2, second of 5 in novice at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Likely to be winning soon.

Form: 342

(6)

Riggsby¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: Miss J A Camacho

25/1

Twice-raced gelding. 150/1, fifth of 11 in novice at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 18 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps after this.

Form: 75

(3)

Wee Dracula³⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine

80/1

Well held in 2 runs for Katie Scott last summer. Needs to have been transformed by a change of stable.

Form: 79-

(1)

Fantasising³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 79

6/5

Runner-up on all 3 starts, sticking to her task well when going down by only a length to a useful sort of Ralph Beckett's at Lingfield (11.5f, good to soft) last time. Should be bang there again.

Form: 222

Forecasts

Line Of Descent (4/5), Fantasising (6/5), Keep The Faith (14/1), Riggsby (25/1), Great Commission (33/1), Hear Me Out (40/1), Wee Dracula (80/1), Little Les (80/1)

This could well develop into a straight fight between Newmarket-raiders LINE OF DESCENT and Fantasising, with a narrow preference for the former.
